Bet you didn’t know that Governor Newsom of California and President Trump are best pals? The President was in California touring the fires and while at a press conference, Newsom lightly poked at the president about climate change perhaps being the cause of the devastating fires in the Golden State. To which Trump shot back… “I don’t think science knows actually.”
So the following day, the press were not happy with Newsom and called him out… to which the governor responded… “I develop good personal relationships. We maintain a strong personal relationship with the vice president. We maintain a strong personal relationship with the president,” Newsom said. “There’s not one phone call that I have made to the president where he hasn’t quickly responded, and almost in every instance, he has responded favorably in addressing the emergency needs of this state.” I would not want to be at Thanksgiving Dinner with Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsom – you do know they’re kind of related, yes?
Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, Joe Biden went deep into the ‘Wheat Fields’, accusing Trump of ignoring a “central crisis” facing the nation. Biden was calling Trump a “climate arsonist” while he was swatting away insects from his neck, and giant creature type bugs crawling across his shoulder. “If you give a climate denier four more years in the White House, why would anyone be surprised when more of America is underwater?”
